For the 50th anniversary of Art Directors of Denver, we captured 50 portraits of all the AD members, past and present board members in the Ad agency and design community. For 3 days in my Denver studio we photographed illustrators, designers, creative directors and writers. The concept was to hire 2 theatrical makeup artist to make them look like they had been beaten, strangled, ran over and dragged by a car, but still smiling, showing that even after all of the abuse, they achieved their design or marketing goals with the client.
